Nigerian fast-rising music star Portable has been removed from taking part in an upcoming Canada show due to a “bad attitude”.

The show organiser Mc Morris, took to his instagram story to explain why he removed the musician.

According to Morris, “talent is not enough, a beautiful song without a beautiful attitude is a beautiful nonsense”.

He added that “Two managers in less than a year, even sacked an innocent DJ that his job na to play song, scratch shaka shake.”

The controversial “Zazzu” crooner has been in the news every other day since he became famous.

He recently sacked all his crew members, claiming that they were preventing him from succeeding.

The show organiser said he’d already written to the Canadian immigration to deny the musician entry visa.
